indoors Arrival Story:I was on the look out for a kitty, I was finally in a position to have a cat again. I work at NASA Ames Research Center, an old large Navy base that includes Military housing. We have a large stray cat population so a compassionate group of employees started a cat network to care for them. I checked with the network first but none of the Ames cats were the right fit for me, at that point I was connected with a local rescue group called Fat Cat Rescue. I checked their website and fell in love with one kitty in particular. His name was B-Button, a small mackerel tabby. I went to Petco to meet him, I was so excited, but when I got there he wanted nothing to do with me, he wouldn't even look at me! I sat next to the cage, I was looking at him and all of a sudden this paw bops me on the side of my head. I looked over and there was Mu, he plopped down on his side and stuck both his paws through the cage and purred loudly. I was smitten, I sat there and talked to him and pet him. I went back the following weekend, he remembered me, he started jumping around the cage because he's super playful like that, that was it, he picked me and I picked him.Lives Remaining:8 of 9Forums Motto:Silly kitty!I've Been On Catster Since:
